Justin Bieber attacked outside Macy’s

By Alexandra Heilbron on June 24, 2011 | 8 Comments


Justin Bieber was inside Macy’s launching his new fragrance, Someday, in New York City yesterday when he decided to venture outside the store to greet thousands of screaming fans. Moments after he walked out the front door, a man jumped over a barricade and launched himself at the pop singer. According to a witness, Bieber was taken by surprise and said, “What? What?” before swinging at the man. Reports now claim that the man was a plainclothes NYPD cop stationed in the crowd, and when Bieber made the unscheduled appearance outside, he leapt into action, thinking something had gone wrong, because Bieber was not supposed to come out of the store. Justin’s bodyguard and several uniformed policemen shoved the man away, before moving Bieber quickly back inside, where he continued to sign autographs for VIP guests. “It was a momentary well-intentioned misunderstanding and the event went well,” Bieber’s spokesman Matthew Hiltzik told the New York Post. “He’s completely fine and has no injuries.” Bieber appeared to be in good spirits when he attended the premiere of his girlfriend Selena Gomez‘s new movie, Monte Carlo, that evening.

    OMG – a little overzealous Cop maybe? That’s a bit embarrassing for the Cop and very disappointing for the fans Justin was trying to please outside.
